“Anica was great to work with. Very knowledgeable and took great care of our puppy. She even went above and beyond to work on training skills and sent some great photos for us to have!! Thank you Anica - plan to rebook!”
“Sophie was absolutely wonderful with our fur baby! She followed our directions perfectly and took excellent care of him. I will definitely be using her in the future and recommend her to all pet owners!”
“Alina cared for our 3 dogs while we went camping and they were happy to see her the minute they saw her the day before. As always Alina did a fantastic job caring for my 3 furbabies. Thank you Alina.”
“Lindsey was great! Our meet and great went well and i felt right away that she was perfect. She has the experience and background that made me comfortable. Lindsey followed all of my crazy long notes and specifications. She did everything we asked and how we wanted it. I was able to be at work and not have to worry about the care my (fur)kids were receiving, I received good updates and detailed post visit notes. We are very cautious on who we let in our home and with our dogs. But I am extremely happy and confident with Linsey. We already booked her for our next two visits.”
About: I have experience of taking care of dogs of any age/size/breed/and energy. My current dog Lola is 16 years old and is very fragile and requires extra care and loving so I have a history dealing with older dogs. In addition my aunt has 3 yellow labs of different ages who I take care of and watch when she is not around. I consider myself in good shape so I can walk your dog however far they need. I am currently training to be a pilot and my schedule is very flexible. I can work around what ever schedule the pet owners prefer. People have entrusted me to pet/house sit before and I make sure to follow any rules the home owner has in place. I will leave zero mess and the only indication Ill leave that tells you I was at your house is a happy fur baby!
“Skylar lets my dog out at lunchtime 3 days a week and he enjoys her visits. She was helpful when a bandage came off a minor injury that my dog had. Overall she has been reliable and responsive.”
“Taylor was able to watch our kitties on short notice. She arrived promptly everyday for drop-ins and managed to work our electronic door systems without any explanation (that's kind of rare lol). I didn't have to explain much to her. She sent us pictures, played with our cats, fed them before she left, and cleaned the litter box when necessary. We were able to enjoy our trip without worry. Thank you Taylor! We're absolutely going ask Taylor to watch our babies again 🩷”
About: The love I have for animals began when I was a child. Our family had every pet you could think of growing up as my mother was an avid pet lover! I have been pet sitting for people for 25 years and I specialize in caring for senior pets that have special needs. I have been a volunteer at a local animal shelter, Lollypop Farm, for more than 20 years. I have also taken a pet CPR class and am certified. People often tell me that I have a wonderful way with animals and that they can see how I love and respect them! Nearly 30 years ago my sister and I started working as a pet sitters after we were routinely asked if we would consider pet care for our friends when they saw how good we were with their dogs & cats & small animals. We decided to care for many pets in their homes while their owners were away, and they felt so at ease and comfortable knowing we were with them giving their furry friends lots of love and attention. I love meeting new four-legged friends and it’s a privilege to be asked to return time and time again. My sister has since moved out of state, but I haven’t stopped caring for people’s pets.I have cared for countless rabbits, Guinea pigs, birds, dogs, cats, fish, to name a few for friends, coworkers, neighbors … It makes my heart so happy to devote my time & attention to them while I can ❤️ I give lots of tender loving care and I have a lot of love & compassion towards them I truly enjoy being with animals, they are all special ❤️ I also like to garden, spend time with family or friends and look at nature.I live alone in a townhouse I have a nice, grassy yard and plenty of sidewalks for strolling . ( I even have a pet stroller for seniors) My parents also live nearby and they are so happy to meet my furry friends. During the weekends I am home & evenings and while I’m working during the week I am able to come home for a lunch check so your pet will never feel lonely! I can also take dog 1/2 day in my office at work 7 minutes away. I have been truly blessed all these years! I have no pets of my own currently so I love loving your babies all the more ❤️ I’m currently working full time able to come home at lunch & occasionally bring dog to my office. I actually love caring for pets & look forward to meeting & making new furry friends, they are all special to me! I have plenty of room in my townhouse & nice yard around me.We have a nice quiet neighborhood and plenty of sidewalks to walk & sniff things along the way!
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was a kid. We have always had at least one dog in the house if not more. In the past 6 years I have helped my parents to puppy train twice. I love dogs unconditionally, but I am not afraid to show a little tough love when needed. I’m currently going back to school and attend a lot of local sporting events but I still make it a priority to take my dog for a walk daily. Whether we fit in a walk before I leave in the morning or in-between class and a game, I know how much she loves her walks. I also make sure to give her ample play time when I am home. I make sure that whether the pet is in a fenced in yard or not I am always keeping an eye on them when outside. I always respect the clients wishes regarding their animal being on furniture, in what rooms, and such on.
About: I’ve had my own pet-sitting business since I was 12 and have years of hands on experience caring for dogs. Most of my experience is with small and medium sized dogs, but I am also comfortable caring for larger dogs. I understand that every dog has their own personality, like us! I take the time to help them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My job offers a flexible schedule, allowing me to make adjustments based on each dog’s individual needs and routine. I understand how important consistency is and will work closely with owners to create a schedule that keeps their dog comfortable and well cared for. Safety and trust are extremely important to me, both for each dog and their owner. I carefully follow all instructions and take time to learn each dog’s routine, personality, and comfort level.
“Rico was absolutely wonderful! He treated my furbabies like his own, staying flexible and attentive throughout. He didn’t just stick to the basics—he added extra walks and even gave them baths, which they really needed! I couldn’t be happier and will definitely book Rico again. Highly recommend him for all your pet care needs!”
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals and would care for your furry family members as if they were my own. I grew up with both large and small dogs, from Shih Tzus to Rottweilers, and now have Huskies of my own. I’ve also grown up with cats and currently have a Maine Coon. My love for animals extends beyond dogs and cats—I also have a saltwater aquarium that brings me so much joy, and I’ve had a passion for wildlife and all kinds of animals from a young age. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and getting to know their unique personalities. I’d love the opportunity to help care for your pets and give them the same love, attention, and care I give my own. I’m happy to help in any way I can! I work nights, so I have plenty of availability every morning and afternoon. I’d love to use that free time to care for and spend time with animals who need a little extra love and attention while their families are away. If you have a fenced-in yard, I’d love to let your pups run around, play fetch, and get all those zoomies out! We can also go for walks, enjoy some sunshine, or simply spend some quality time playing and relaxing together. My goal is to make sure they get plenty of exercise, attention, and fun while they’re in my care!
About: Hello! I am a PhD student at UofR who enjoys spending time outdoors and caring for pets. I'm turning to Rover to find new clients after previously babysitting both cats and dogs in my apartment building, whose owners have recently moved away. I enjoy taking dogs on long walks and hikes, and have experience with many animals, having spent most of my life on a farm. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets and keep them happy and active! I am happy to provide references. As a student, my schedule is busiest midweek, but I have plenty of free time on weekends and can easily accommodate mornings and evenings. Mondays and Fridays are also more flexible, making them great days for drop-ins, walks, or house sitting visits. I want to make sure your pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I do have a car and can transport larger dogs if needed, but I usually prefer caring for pets in their own home. I can do drop-in visits, house sitting, and taking dogs on walks in your neighborhood or mine (wherever they feel most at ease).
“Rebecca took amazing care of my senior dog and I highly recommend her service! Rebecca provided quick and great communication and my dog (and I) instantly felt comfortable the minute we met. Medicine was administered as well as lots of cuddles throughout the stay. I know that my dog was well cared for and am so appreciative. I will definitely re-book with Rebecca!”
“Christine did such a good job. She took great care of Rusty and sent photos throughout our time away. She was responsive whenever I messaged her about anything. Our house was just as clean as we left it. All of our furbabies seemed to really like her and enjoy all the pets and snuggles they got while we were gone. We hope she will be available again when we go out of town.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Fairport
This was our first time using Rover, so I was a little hesitant about leaving our animal house in someone else’s hands. But after meeting her, I immediately felt much more at ease. She took such great care of our dogs and cats (and fish!), checked in consistently, and sent us lots of pictures and updates while we were away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our pets and made sure they were happy, comfortable, and well taken care of. She is so sweet, and we would absolutely have her back again!
Mindy was outstanding as our house sitter and catsitter, once again—she watches over our home several times a year, for several years now. She went ABOVE AND BEYOND when tornadoes struck the area while we were away—going well out of her way to check on our home and kitty after the historic storms passed, to make sure all was safe—which it was. When you are 3 states away and listening to the horrendous storm reports coming in, it is a very helpless feeling. Mindy was a life saver, giving us such reassurance, so that we could go back to celebrating a large family wedding.
Geannie was a wonderful pet sitter. She took good care of Rusty and sent photos and updates. She was punctual and spent plenty of time with him and also helped with making sure our kitties had some attention and a clean litter box. Easily to communicate with. Hope to have her care for him again.

Linda did a great job caring for my cat who requires two visits daily because she’s on medication. I appreciated the timeliness of her visits and the clear communication. Everything was tidy and in great condition when we got home. I plan to use Linda’s services the next time we’re in need of a cat sitter!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Fairport is $22 per visit as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $19 and $27 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of October 2026, there are 932 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Fairport. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

- 88% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 94% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
sitters on Rover set their own , which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
